Dear Ava,
I've been crying all week. I didn't know you personally, but I know it must have been thrilling to meet the Gatekeeper (Holy Spirit). To show you the way. I know you weren't afraid. When the Gatekeeper summons you, that is THE highest compliment of all in God's kingdom.

To sweet little ava's family,
My son was one of the police officers who assisted you that night. It has had a profound effect on him! When he called home to let us know, I had no words to comfort him. I went to church and lit a candle for Ava and not a day has gone by that I don't think of her and pray that she is in a better place. My thoughts and prayers will continue for all of you that you may find peace!

To Little Ava Lynn's family,
I do not know you, but if only a few words of sincere sympathy, and love,from complete strangers is what our Lord promised when he said,"BLESSED ARE THEY THAT MOURN, FOR THEY SHALL BE COMFORTED" then so shall it be. This tragedy has affected more people than you know. So Ava has been made known to the world. I have been told that when a child passes, "that" child was an ANGEL,sent here to accomplish something, and when they pass, a change has been made because of them. I am so sorry for your loss. I have been praying for your family and will continue to do so. May you derive strength through prayers, the support of your family, and the peace and mercy, that only God can provide.
My deepest sympathy

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.
Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."
It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man.
God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.
When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.
I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.
There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.
If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.
So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.
And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.
